The hCG diet was a non-traditional diet created and introduced in the 1950's, and reintroduced to the mainstream as the cure for obesity. It was a short-term solution to a long-term problem. This delighted dieters with a quick way to "reset" their metabolisms and lose weight, but what exactly is the hCG diet?
Although it is a weight-loss diet, there's more to it than that.
Early one morning, I ran out of the house for coffee and a brownie (shhhh...don't tell anyone) at my local 7-Eleven. It was 5:50 a.m. and I caught the tail end of a promotional piece on 98.7 about SKINNY D™ . I was intrigued because SKINNY D™ is a weight loss program that promotes itself by targeting high fructose corn syrup. If you're interested keep reading.
"You on a Diet" seemed befitting for this post.
I plan to add new recipes and my own food & nutrition content to this web page, but I also decided to add explanations of popular diets, old diets and their recipes. Each will have links to their websites for further information.
I get a lot of questions about different diets, how they work, what they affect and whether they are effective.
These posts may help someone find a diet, or a variation of a diet, that works with their physical well being and mental state.
Diet examples that will be covered
South Beach, HCG, Volumetrics, Atkins, Dukan, Paleo, Cabbage Soup, Hollywood, Keto and The Blood Type Diet and a whole lot more. Did you know there were so many?
